According to the judges, the A10 Thunder 4440S ADC improves performance and meets the increasing demands of PFS. The judges added that the new Thunder 4440S ADC performed 1.5 times faster than competitors’ products in the same price range.

In a live demonstration that ran for more than nine continuous hours, the A10 Thunder 4440S ADC showed unwavering stability with no recorded failures – unsuccessful connections were zero. In the demo, A10 was the only vendor that showed it can offer high-performance SSL acceleration using PFS, which requires three times the computing resources than RSA. A10 was able to demonstrate 42,000 SSL connections per second using the cipher TLS1_ECDHE_ECDSA_AES_128_SHA256.

According to the Interop Tokyo judges, the live demo of the A10 Thunder 14045 CGN showed impressive performance scalability of 307 Gbps, which is better than the product’s listed 300 Gbps.

Additionally, the judges said the Thunder 14045 CGN’s IPv4 preservation and IPv6 migration capabilities make it timely for service providers and mobile carriers looking to deliver IPv6 services to subscribers.
